I am aware that Firefox stores a specific number of items in the browsing history locally until it starts to hit the performance. But, is there any time-limit or a specific number of items for history being stored in the cloud with Firefox account?

Synced tabs expire in 7 days. Synced history expires in 60 days. New history is only uploaded for the last 30 days.

Current Firefox versions keep a maximum number of visited page and do not have a time limit for the history.

This question was specific about storing them in the cloud using the Firefox sync service, not locally.
